Damage In Tolland Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 not in brockton 17 inches of paste from 2 qpf will stick around a bit longer. ANYONE get a report out of blue hills.....seems the QPF map showed them getting creamed......any totals out of blue hills? Everyone's snowpack except maybe Moneypits and MRG;s will get mostly wiped out by Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 estimating a final total of 12" here. not bad. NWS Upton performed terribly mid-event for much of CT. In classic style, they upped totals last-minute for those areas that were under-performing. Also, their AFD says that SE CT only got 8-16", but their PNS says the highest total was 7.5 inches...

40/70 Benchmark Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Heavy heavy drift measuring. No way I got 9'' in Nashua and you got 18'' in Wilmington without CF enhancement. I agree....I'm ending at like 1'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Amem to the "fook this powder" sentiment, Kev. Not only does it have more staying power, but more often than not, areas just inland like my locale find a way to get porked in the cold storms because the immediate shore ends being aided by oceanic contributions....I get the exhaust type subsidence in the wake of it. Cement is also easier to measure. Give me 32-33*, cf straddling, drippy, sloppy cement, while Boston rains, over this crap. Hope Jerry and all of those guys enjoyed this one, though. I'd rsthe rlose to ORH, any day though. How about 2 feet of 14:1 while Bos gets 16 inches of 10:1 and messenger gets 9 inches of cement. Can you live with that? Actually the scenario in the bold doesn't happen straight out all that often. Usually once BOS goes over to all rain, it marches inland...especially once we're in mid winter. Sometimes it marches to about 5 miles from your house and stops but often not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I saw his hill from 84 on Saturday...I think he does have a legitimate 1000 feet. I was a bit surprised. 85% of Tolland is above 500 Feet. There's higher spots in town than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpickett79 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Heavy heavy drift measuring. No way I got 9'' in Nashua and you got 18'' in Wilmington without CF enhancement. well no way bc i just studied the 24 hour radar loop and it didn't happen. no way no how. Dom or anyone else i'm really trying to get a BLUE HILLS measurement b/c i think they may have jackpotted for E. MASS. based on qpf maps looks like they got over 1.5 qpf maybe near 2. (n. extent of Very high qpf) area add in elevation....and some Ocean enhancement and i think they got 20". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Mine won't be unless its 55 for several days. Yeah it will..esp with a day ahead of the front with 55-60 south winds and high dews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonWX Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Mine won't be unless its 55 for several days. This warmup looks like its going to underperform. GFS 2M temps make it to 38 for a brief time in Boston. I like to add 5* to these in the long range, so maybe we get 1day around 40 and another ay in the mid 40's.

PWMan Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Disappointed not to get the prolific totals or experience any thundersnow with this one, but considering how this season started and how iffy this threat appeared just a few days ago, I can't complain. It's perfect timing for the kids, with today being the first "boring" post-Christmas vacation day. Wish I could have stayed home with them, but it was hard to justify not coming to the office on the basis of 6-8 inches. The prevailing sentiment around here seems to be "Yep, another overhyped storm..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BostonWX Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Euro has a brutal torch. GFS is always way too cold for these torchs. Watch numbers come way up this week I still think this will be muted with lots of snowcover to our SW. I think the GFS is picking up on that. With over 20 inches in Jersey and snow down into the carolinas, I think this get moderated. I could see upper 40's as a possibility into the CT valley, but I'd be surprised if we make it past 45 in Boston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
